Filter by:This study aims to assess cutaneous and blood immune cell function of patients with psoriasis before and after initiation of treatment with the Tyrosine kinase 2 (TYK2) blocker, deucravacitinib.
The METRED-P study will test the feasibility of implementing a Mediterranean style diet and/or time-restricted eating as dietary patterns in individuals with psoriasis. This study will address the following research questions: 1. Are participants' able to adhere to the allocated dietary intervention? 2. What is the participants' acceptability of the allocated dietary intervention? 3. What is the practicality (from a clinician's stand point) of delivering the dietary interventions? 4. When adhering to the allocated intervention, are there changes in psoriasis severity? 5. When adhering to the allocated intervention, are there changes in measures of body composition? 6. When adhering to the allocated intervention, are there changes in fasting blood measures? Participants will attend an initial clinic visit for a fasting blood sample, psoriasis examination, body composition measurements, and will complete short multiple-choice questionnaires on the severity of their psoriasis. A Research Nutritionist will deliver the diet interventions as diet consultation sessions. These sessions are reoccurring throughout the study as virtual consultation booster sessions, which are supplemented with wellbeing check-in calls. Participants will complete short questionnaires on the severity of their psoriasis and will record their dietary intake for 4 days, before the start of the study, and on week 1, week 6, and week 12 of the study. The allocated diet should be adhered to for 12 weeks until the end of the study, where participants will return and attend a final clinic visit to repeat the measures obtained during the initial clinic visit. Researchers will compare the feasibility of implementing a Mediterranean style diet and a Mediterranean style diet with time-restricted eating, with a UK diet with time-restricted eating.
Psoriasis is an inflammatory skin disease with huge negative impact on the quality of life of the patients, and has an overall prevalence of 2% to 3% in the general population. Plaques psoriasis is the most common type of the disease and presents red, well demarcated, and silvery plaques mainly localized in the umbilical and lumbosacral area as well as in the elbows, knees, and scalp. Currently, pharmacological treatments such as retinoids, corticosteroids, vitamin D analogs and biologics remain the main options for most psoriasis patients. However, side effect and high cost barred many ordinary psoriasis patients from benefiting from the treatments. A Chinese medicine formula "Shuiniujiao Dihuang Decoction with Variation (SDD)" was prescribed by Prof. Lin for many years and observed to be effective in relieving psoriasis patients' clinical manifestations. In this study, subjects with psoriasis will be randomized into treatment group of "SDD" or placebo group for 12 weeks.
A cross sectional clinical study will be conducted on male patients with moderate and sever psoriasis vulgaris to: - Identify the pattern of serum testosterone level and tissue androgen receptors. - Evaluate the relationship between serum testosterone level, tissue androgen receptors and the severity of psoriasis vulgaris
Biologics such as risankizumab are currently the most effective treatment option for patients with moderate to severe psoriasis. But they are costly for healthcare systems and still described according to a 'one dose fits all' dosing regimen, leading to potential over-and undertreatment. In this study the investigators aim to investigate the predictive value of early serum trough levels of risankizumab and determine the therapeutic window of risankizumab in psoriasis patients.
Biologics such as tildrakizumab are currently the most effective treatment option for patients with moderate to severe psoriasis. But they are costly for healthcare systems and still described according to a 'one dose fits all' dosing regimen, leading to potential over-and undertreatment. In this study, the investigators aim to investigate the predictive value of early serum trough levels of tildrakizumab and determine the therapeutic window of tildrakizumab in psoriasis patients.
Narrow-band UVR affects Interleukin 17 which has a major role in the pathogenesis of psoriasis Vulgaris. the aim of this study to evaluate the serum levels of Interleukin 17 in psoriatic patients and compare with the levels in healthy controls & evaluate the effect of narrow-band ultraviolet B (NB-UVB) on the serum of Interleukin 17 and the treatment of psoriasis Vulgaris.
We are conducting a proof-of-concept trial to study the impact of HRV-biofeedback, a mind-body technique designed to improve stress resilience, on the quality of life, mood, and clinical skin severity of patients with psoriasis.
This is an open-label study to evaluate the effects of bimekizumab in patients with psoriasis vulgaris and who also have active psoriatic arthritis (PsA).
This was a Phase I, single-center, randomized, controlled trial to evaluate the antipsoriatic efficacy of calcipotriol in novel formulations based on AKVANO technology as compared to marketed calcipotriol products (Daivonex® solution and cream) and to evaluate their cutaneous safety in a psoriasis plaque test
